[ACFUG Discuss] useful tools

2006-11-28 Thread Steven Ross

If you like service capture you might want to check out this tool for firefox:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/966/

lets you watch requests and modify them before they are sent, very
useful for debugging flash apps.

Yeah I have firebug, it wont show you the requests coming out of flash
though... at least i don't see where it does that.

And for non-Firefox users, still another option like them (and also free) is
Fiddler: http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/

All these are great tools for understanding what's going on between your
browser and the server, and useful not just for debugging Flash apps but
also Ajax, Flex, and even traditional web-based apps. I've been a fan and
advocate of them for a long time, and they've saved my bacon more than once.

My favorite MITM proxy is, and has been for a long time, Paros.  WebScarab has 
some other interesting features, but a crappy UI.

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] useful tools

2006-11-28 Thread Charlie Arehart
Good point, Steven, and thanks for sharing the additional ones, Dean.  

This discussion has motivated me to create a list of these and several other
alternative http debugging proxies, which I now have at
http://www.systemanage.com/cff/considering_products.cfm#proxy. This is a
place that I've long offered lists of tools related to working with CFML. 

I've heard people mention so many different ones over the past year or two
that I thought it worth cataloging. 

I also decided to blog this particular list at
http://carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/11/28/alternative_http_debugg
ing_proxies, for those who may not notice the list on the older
systemanage.com site. (Some day I'll reconcile the two, or bring the
products page over to carehart.org.)

I welcome comments or additional proxies there or here.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] useful tools

2006-11-28 Thread Ajas Mohammed

Hi,
  As Charlie Arehart mentioned earlier, Firebug is a nice to have plugin if
you want to traverse DOM Tree or do JavaScript debugging. I use Firebug
extensively. The other plugin I would recommend is Web Developer plugin.
Here is the url
http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/

You can do  almost everything from html editing, css editing, x y coor,
images, comments and the list goes on. I am not sure about http requests but
this tool is very good as it supports live editing. You can do live editing
in Firebug also but with restrictions.

Others I use sometimes are ViewSourceWith
http://dafizilla.sourceforge.net/viewsourcewith/
ViewSourceChart.http://jennifermadden.com/

I love ViewSourceChart... Very nice plugin

Thanks,

Ajas Mohammed.
Web Developer
